Jeff and his cousin work during the summer for a roofing company. Jeff's cousin has been working for the company longer, so his pay is 40% more than Jeff's. Last week his cousin worked 30 hours,
and Jeff worked 25 hours. Together, they earned $562.80. What is Jeff's hourly pay? Explain or
show your reasoning

$7.31

Step-by-step explanation:

30j+40% + 25j= 562.8

30j+25j= 55j

55j + 40% = 562.8

40% of 55 is 22

77j = 562.8

562.8 77 = 7.309090909

Simplify 7.309090909

$7.31 Per hour.

answer

point o.

step-by-step explanation:

the answer is:

the correct option:

b.

to solve the problem, we need to remember how to operate to simplify exponential expressions using the logarithms.

we are given the equation:

then, using placing logarith with base 7 on both sides of the equation, we have:

so, rounding the obtained result to two decimal places (nearest hundreth), we have:

hence, we have that the correct option:

b.

have a nice day!
